I. Introduction

       This document describes the ozone modeling performed as part of the Tier 2/Sulfur final
rulemaking.  The ozone modeling was conducted to support several components of the
rulemaking including (a) the determination of need for the Tier 2/Sulfur program, (b) the
benefits/cost analysis, (c) an assessment of the expected impacts of the program on future ozone
concentrations, and (d) the preparation of responses to comments on the proposed rulemaking.
The modeling involved simulations of the Urban Airshed Model-Variable Grid (UAM-V), (SAI
1996) in a regional mode for two modeling domains (eastern U.S. and western U.S.) which
together cover nearly all of the 48 contiguous States. Model runs were made for a 1996 Base
Year and four future-year emissions scenarios: a 2007 Base Case, a 2007 Tier 2/Sulfur Control
Case, a 2030 Base Case and a 2030 Control Case.  These scenarios, along with the procedures
followed to develop the emissions inventories for modeling, and the impacts of the control
scenarios on  emissions are described elsewhere (Pechan, 1999). For the eastern U.S., model
simulations were made for all five emissions scenarios.  However, since modeling for the West
was intended mainly to support the  benefit/cost analysis which was performed for 2030, only the
1996 base year and 2030 base case and control scenarios were modeled for the West.  As
described below, for both the East and West, emissions scenarios were modeled using
meteorological conditions for several multi-day  episodes when ambient measurements recorded
high ozone concentrations.  The remainder of this report includes a description of the modeling
system, the modeling episodes, the base year model performance over the eastern and western
U.S., and a discussion of the results of these simulations.
II.  Ozone Modeling over the Eastern United States

A.  Episode Selection

       There are several considerations involved in selecting episodes for an ozone modeling
analysis (EPA, 1999). In general, the goal should be to model several differing sets of
meteorological conditions leading to ambient ozone levels similar to an area's design value1.
Ideally, the modeling time periods would be supported by large amounts of ambient data to be
used in input development and model evaluation. The issue, in terms of regional modeling, is
how to meet these episode selection goals over a large number of individual ozone non-
attainment areas without having to model several entire ozone seasons (impossibly time
consuming and resource-intensive). It is inevitable that the chosen episodes will feature
observed ozone lower than the design value in some  areas and greater than the design value in
other areas. For the Tier 2/Sulfur analyses, we focused on the summer of 1995 for selecting the
       1 Typically defined as the fourth-highest 1-hour daily maximum ozone observed over a
three year period at a specific monitor.

                                           1

episodes to model in the East because 1995 is a recent time period for which we had model-ready
meteorological inputs and the summer of 1995 contained one of the four episodes used by the
Ozone Transport Assessment Group (OTAG) for modeling regional ozone over the eastern U.S.

       Based on a review of observed daily maximum ozone concentrations across the eastern
U.S. during June through August, three episodes were selected for ozone modeling: June 12-24,
July 5-15, and August 10-21. The start of each episode was picked to correspond to days with no
ozone exceedances.  Thirty episode days were modeled in all, not including the three ramp-up
days used in each episode to minimize the effects of initial conditions. The meteorological
conditions and ozone levels during each episode are described below.

       1.     Episodic Meteorological Conditions  and Ozone Levels

       Warm temperatures, light winds, cloud-free skies,  and stable boundary layers are some of
the typical characteristics of ozone episodes.  On a synoptic scale, these conditions usually result
from a combination  of high pressure aloft (500 millibars) and at the surface. At a smaller scale,
the conditions that lead to local ozone exceedances can vary from location to location (based on
factors such as wind direction, sea/lake breezes, etc.)  The meteorological and resultant ozone
patterns for the three Tier 2 modeling  episodes are discussed in  more detail below.

       June 12-24.  1995

       The initial stages of this episode were fairly typical from the standpoint of regional
meteorology. A 500-millibar ridge propagated into the eastern U.S. from the west.  The ridge
was associated with  a surface high that migrated south from Canada.  A cold front passed
completely through the region by June 13 (Wednesday) allowing the modeling to start with a
clean set of initial conditions. Maximum temperatures during the June 15 - 17-period were
generally in the 80s  and little precipitation was measured.  By June 17, a strong (1028 mb)
surface high was anchored over the  region.

       The observed ozone fields in the early part of the episode were high (e.g., 125-130 ppb)
only in locations such as Houston, Beaumont, and Lake Michigan. It was not until June 17 that
concentrations exceeded 100 ppb over large parts of the domain (i.e., Midwest and Northeast
Corridor).

       However, as the aloft pattern amplified, a cut off low developed over the southeastern
U.S. On the 19th and 20th, cooler temperatures and occasional rain prevailed in the Southeast.
This resulted in a temperature pattern that featured maximums of 90-100 degrees F  over the
northern tier of States and 75-85 degrees F in the south. Additionally, the strong cyclonic
circulation around this low resulted in aloft flow from east to west over the mid-Atlantic and
Ohio Valley States.  Ozone continued to build throughout this period in the Northeast, peaking
on the  19th and 20th with values greater than 125 ppb common from Washington, D.C. to Boston.

-------
       The last four days of the episode were relatively clean in the Northeast due to the
combination of a "backdoor" cold front and the northward migration of the cut off low.
Meanwhile ozone conducive conditions returned to the Texas Gulf Coast and Lake Michigan
areas. The highest value over the entire summer of 1995 (210 ppb) was recorded near Houston
on the 22nd. The episode came to an end on the 25th as a long-wave trough replaced the 500-mb
ridge over the eastern U.S.

       Table II-1 shows a State-by-State listing of daily exceedance counts during the June 1995
Tier 2 episode. There were 85 exceedances of the ozone NAAQS during this period. The peak
day of the episode was June 19.  Texas had the most exceedances (28).

       July 5-15. 1995

       The mid-July episode, which covered most of the Ozone Transport Assessment Group
(OTAG) July 1995 episode, is much easier to characterize from a meteorological perspective. A
strong 500-mb ridge progressed from west to east across the eastern U.S. over the period.  This
feature was centered over Colorado on the 8th, over Kansas on the 11th, over Illinois on the 13th,
and over Pennsylvania on the 15th.  The ridge finally flattened out on the 16th allowing a surface
cold front to clean out the northern portions of the domain and less stable conditions to prevail
over the southern portions.

       Excessively hot temperatures accompanied the core of this strong ridge.  Temperatures in
the 90s and 100s were common throughout the episode. Rainfall was confined primarily to the
coastal regions in the south and southeast. Wind speeds were moderate and the mean transport
direction was southwest to northeast,  especially over the northern half of the domain.

-------
       From the 8th through the 10th, the airmass over the eastern U.S. was gradually becoming
hazy.  Ozone hot spots occurred in urban areas like Houston, Dallas, and Atlanta. By the 11th, the
area of regional haze (roughly defined as the area where peak ozone was greater than 75 ppb) had
expanded to encompass most of the domain.  On top of that "background," local contributions
from urban emissions yielded ozone exceedances in places like Kansas City, St. Louis,
Birmingham, Dallas, Memphis, Atlanta, Baton Rouge, Evansville, Louisville, Cincinnati,
Chicago, Milwaukee, Columbus, and Baltimore/Washington on the 11th and 12th.

       July 13 and 14 marked the highest regional ozone levels of the summer as most sites,
with the exception of those in the Southeast, exceeded 100 ppb.  Almost all major metropolitan
areas in the northern two-thirds of the domain measured values greater than 125 ppb on this day.
For the 14th and 15th, most of the ozone problem shifted east and south due to both transport and
the location of the aloft core of warm air.  The Northeast Corridor, Charlotte, Greensboro,
Birmingham, and Atlanta all had exceedances of the standard on this day. The episode ended
abruptly on the 16th (Sunday) for most of the domain, although elevated ozone lingered over the
southern regions into the early part of the next week.

       Table II-2 shows a State-by-State listing of daily exceedance counts during the July 1995
Tier 2 episode.  There were 199 exceedances of the  ozone NAAQS during this period.  The peak
day of the episode, in terms of exceedance monitors was July 14. Texas had the most
exceedances (26).

       August 7-21. 1995

       A one-day ozone event occurred over New England on August 10, and a separate one-day
event occurred in the Lake Michigan region on the 12th. By the 14th, high pressure aloft and at
the surface dominated the eastern half of the U.S. Temperatures ranged from 90 to 100 degrees F
over most of the domain throughout this period.  Ozone was highest over Georgia, Tennessee,

-------
Kentucky, North Carolina, and Virginia during this period. Hurricane Felix brushed the East
Coast from the 16th - 18th, but appeared to have little effect on ozone or ozone transport away
from the immediate eastern seaboard.

       A weak cold front, draped across the Great Lakes over most of the episode, moved slowly
southward over the eastern half of the Appalachians during the August 18-21 period. This front
initiated precipitation that helped keep ozone concentrations low in the upper Midwest.  The 18th
featured high ozone across the South in cities such as: Atlanta, Charlotte, Birmingham, Augusta,
as well as St. Louis. On the 19th and 20th, as the front slid further south, ozone air quality
improved over this region as well.  Only sites in Texas and Louisiana remain above 125 ppb.
The 21st marked the fourth day that the same airmass has resided over the Northeast and it had
become fairly polluted by that point.

       Table II-3 shows a State-by-State listing of daily exceedance2 counts during the August
1995 Tier 2 episode.  There were 90 exceedances of the ozone NAAQS during this period.  The
peak day of the episode, in terms of exceedance monitors was August 21st. Texas had the most
exceedances (15).

       2.  General Representativeness of Episodic Ozone as Compared to Design Values

       In order to examine the representativeness of ozone levels during the episodes selected
for modeling, a comparison was made between the daily maximum observed values to recent
       2 An exceedance is a daily maximum 1-hour ozone concentration >=125 ppb.

                                           5

design values.  In this analysis, the magnitude of county-specific design values for 1996-1998
were compared to the highest through 5th highest concentrations measured in the county during
the three episodes. Counties with design values (DV) >120 ppb were selected for analysis in
order to focus on concentrations approaching and exceeding the NAAQS. As can be seen in
Table II-4, 64 percent of the 110 counties examined have design values within 15 ppb of the
highest observed ozone in the  Tier 2 episodes.  Additionally, the second-high observed value
yields more values below the design value than above it.  The results indicate that the selected
episodes contain measured ozone concentrations that are generally representative of recent design
values over a large portion of the eastern U.S.

B.  Domain and Grid Configuration

       As with episode selection, there are also several considerations involved in selecting the
domain and grid configuration to be used in the ozone modeling analysis. The modeling domain
should encompass the area of intended analysis with an additional buffer of grid cells to
minimize the effects of uncertain boundary condition inputs.  Grid resolution should be
equivalent to the resolution of the primary model inputs (emissions, winds, etc.) and equivalent
to the scale of the air quality issue being addressed. For the eastern U.S., the regional/national
Tier 2 analyses used the previously established OTAG domain to model regional ozone. The
western U.S. domain is discussed in Section HI.

       The Tier 2 UAM-V modeling was completed using two grids of varying extent (shown in
Figure II-1) and resolution as described below.

Main Grid:   Resolution: 1/2° longitude, 1/3° latitude (approximately 36 km)
             East-West extent: -99 W to -67 W
             North-South extent: 26 N to 47 N
             Vertical extent: Surface to 4 km
             Dimensions: 64 by 63 by 9

-------
Nested Grid3: Resolution:  1/6° longitude, 1/9° latitude (approximately 12 km)
             East-West extent: -92 W to -69.5 W
             North-South extent: 32 N to 44 N
             Vertical extent: Surface to 4 km
             Dimensions: 137 by 110 by 9
       The vertical layers were consistent between the two grids: 0-50, 50-100, 100-300, 300-
600, 600-1000, 1000-1500, 1500-2000, 2000-2500, 2500-4000.  All model heights are in meters
above ground level.  The number of vertical layers is greater than past regional-scale modeling
applications (e.g., OTAG) and was intended to better capture the depth of the planetary boundary
layer.

       This modeling domain allows for the consideration of future residual ozone exceedances
and the effects of Tier 2 emissions reductions over most major metropolitan areas in the eastern
U.S. (The Dallas-Fort Worth area may be the  exception given its proximity to the western
boundary.)

modeling domain (36 km) and the inner box indicates the fine grid location (12 km).
       3 Model concentrations are not calculated for the outer periphery of the nested grid. Two
buffer rows and columns are needed to solve the advection portion of the mass balance equation.

-------
C.  Meteorological Modeling

       In order to solve for the change in pollutant concentrations over time and space, the air
quality model requires certain meteorological inputs that, in part, govern the formation, transport,
and destruction of pollutant material. In particular, the UAM-V model used in the Tier 2
analyses requires five meteorological input files: wind (u- and v-vector wind components),
temperature, water vapor mixing ratio, atmospheric air pressure, and vertical diffusion
coefficient. Fine grid values of wind and vertical diffusivity are used; the other fine grid
meteorological inputs are interpolated from the coarse grid files.

       The gridded meteorological data for the three historical 1995 episodes were developed by
the New York Department of Environment and Conservation (NYDEC) using the Regional
Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS), version 3b.  RAMS (Pielke et. a/., 1992) is a numerical
meteorological model that  solves the full set  of physical and thermodynamic equations which
govern atmospheric motions.  The output data from RAMS, which is run in a polar stereographic
projection and a sigma-p coordinate system, are then mapped to the UAM-V grid. Two separate
meteorological UAM-V inputs, cloud fractions and rainfall  rates, were developed based on
observed data.

       RAMS was run in a nested-grid mode with three levels of resolution: 108 km, 36 km, and
12 km with 2S-344 vertical layers. The top of the surface layer was 16.7 m in the 36 and 12km
grids. The two finer grids were at least as large as their UAM-V counterparts. In order to keep
the model results in line with reality, the simulated fields were nudged to an European Center for
Medium-Range Weather Forecasting (ECMWF) analysis field every six hours.  This assimilation
data set was bolstered by every four-hourly special soundings regularly collected as part of the
North American Research  Strategy on Tropospheric Ozone (NARSTO) field study in the
northeast U.S.

       A summary of the settings and assorted input files employed in this RAMS application
are listed below in Table D-5.  For more detail on the meteorological model configuration, see
Lagouvardos et al. (1997).

       A limited model performance evaluation (Sistla, 1999) was completed for a portion of the
1995 meteorological modeling (July 12-15).  Observed data not used in the assimilation
procedure were compared against modeled data at the surface and aloft. In general, there were no
widespread biases in temperatures and winds. Furthermore, the meteorological fields were
compared before and after  being processed into UAM-V inputs. It was concluded that this
preprocessing did not distort the meteorological fields.
       4 34 layers were used in the inner nested grids. 28 layers were modeled in the outer 108
km grid.

       The manmade emissions inventories for the five modeling scenarios were processed
through EMS-95 (Alpine Geophysics, 1994) in order to develop the UAM-V-ready, day-specific
emissions. Biogenic emissions were developed using the BEIS-2 model (Birth and Geron,
1995).  In addition, the photochemical grid model requires several other types of data. In general,
most of these miscellaneous model files were taken from existing regional modeling
applications.  Clean conditions were used to initialize the model and as lateral and top boundary
conditions as in OTAG (OTAG, 1997).

       The model requires information regarding land use type and surface albedo for all Layer 1
grid cells in the domain. Existing OTAG data were used for these non-day-specific files.
Photolysis rates were developed using the JCALC portion of the UAM-V modeling system.
Turbidity values were set equal to a constant thought to be representative of regional conditions.

E.  Model Performance Evaluation
       The goal of the base year modeling was to reproduce the atmospheric processes resulting
in high ozone concentrations over the eastern United States during the three 1995 episodes

-------
selected for modeling. Note that the base year of the emissions was 1996 while the episodes are
in 1995.  The effects on model performance of using 1996 base year emissions for the 1995
episodes are expected to be small.

       An  operational model performance evaluation for surface ozone for the 1995 episodes
was performed in order to estimate the ability of the modeling system to replicate base year
ozone concentrations. This evaluation is comprised principally of statistical assessments of
model versus observed pairs. The robustness of an operational evaluation is directly proportional
to the amount and quality of the ambient data available for comparison.

       1.  Statistical Definitions

       Below are the definitions of statistics used for the evaluation.  The format of all the
statistics is such that negative values indicate model ozone predictions that were less than their
observed counterparts.  Positive statistics indicate model overestimation of surface ozone.
Statistics were not generated for the first three days of an episode to avoid the initialization
period.  The operational statistics were generated on a regional basis in accordance with the
primary purpose of the modeling which is to assess the need for, and impacts of, a national
mobile source emissions control program. The statistics were calculated for (a) the entire Tier 2
domain and (b) four quadrants (Midwest, Northeast,  Southeast, Southwest).  The statistics
calculated for each of these areas are:

Domainwide unpaired peak prediction accuracy: This metric simply compares the peak
concentration modeled anywhere in the selected area against the peak ambient concentration
anywhere in the same area.  The difference of the peaks (model - observed) is then normalized by
the peak observed concentration.

Peak prediction accuracy: This metric averages the paired peak prediction accuracy calculated for
each monitor in the subregion.  It characterizes the capacity of the model to replicate peak
(afternoon) ozone over a subregion.  The daily peak model versus daily peak observed residuals
are paired in space but not in time.

Mean normalized bias: This performance statistic averages the normalized (by observation)
difference (model - observed) over all pairs in which the observed values were greater than  60
ppb. A value of zero would indicate that the model over predictions and model under predictions
exactly cancel each other out.

Mean normalized gross error: The last metric used to assess the performance  of the Tier 2/Sulfur
base cases is  similar to the above statistic, except in this case it is the absolute value of the
residual which is normalized by the observation, and then averaged over all sites. A zero gross
error value would indicate that all model concentrations (in which their observed counterpart was
greater than 60 ppb) exactly matched the ambient values.

       2.  Evaluation Results
       As with previous regional photochemical modeling studies, the Tier 2 base year
simulations are accurate representations of the historical ozone patterns at certain times and
locations and poor representations at other times and locations over this large modeling domain.
From a qualitative standpoint, there appears to be considerable similarity on most  days between
the observed and simulated ozone patterns. Additionally, where possible to discern, the model
appears to follow the day-to-day variations in synoptic-scale ozone fairly closely.  Other relevant
observations, in terms of model performance, are listed below.

•      Mean normalized bias and mean normalized gross error values are similar  to OTAG

       In general, the model under predicts ozone for the June and July episodes (-10 and -6
       percent, respectively).  This underestimation bias generally occurs over the first half of an
       episode. The latter portions of these episodes are generally unbiased.  Model
       performance is best over the southern portions of the domain.

       Mean normalized gross error ranges from 22 to 23 percent. Bias and errors are generally
       lowest in the Southwest region (fewest number of observed sites).

       The model typically underestimates the peaks as well as the mean ozone, but not as
       severely.

       Although the overall tendency (June/July episodes) is to underestimate the observed
       ozone, there are several instances in which large overestimations occurred.

       The model is slightly biased toward overestimation in the August episode (2.1 percent).
       Only the Northeast quadrant is underestimated (-9.1 percent) in this episode.

       While there are no established statistical  criteria for evaluating the adequacy of regional
       modeling applications, the relatively low values of bias and error plus the OTAG-
       equivalent performance indicate the modeling is sufficient for a national assessment of
       the need for (and impact of) Tier 2/Sulfur controls.
III.  Ozone Modeling over the Western United States

A.  Episode Selection

       For the western modeling, there were no existing meteorological data sets suitable for
regional ozone modeling. Measured ozone concentrations were examined for several recent
years to find representative ozone episodes over the western U.S. As with the East, the ambient
data were analyzed in order to identify time periods which captured episodic conditions in as
many areas as possible.  As a result of this analysis, two episodes from the summer of 1996 were
selected for the western U.S. modeling: July 5-15 and July 18-31.  An additional advantage
associated with the selection of 1996 episodes is the meteorological inputs and emissions inputs
are both from the same year.  Nineteen episode days were modeled in all, not including the three
ramp-up days used in both  episodes to minimize the effects of initial conditions.

       1.  Episodic Meteorological Conditions and Ozone Levels

       July 5-15. 1996

       July 6 marked the beginning of the development of a large 500 millibar ridge over the
western U.S.  A thermal low was located over the California desert and average summertime

                                           12

-------
conditions (light winds, warm temperatures, and little to no precipitation) existed over much of
the region.  Ozone was high (i.e., greater than 125 ppb) in the Sacramento, San Joaquin Valley,
and Los Angeles basins over the first five days of the episode. Most of the rest of the region did
not experience elevated amounts of ozone, with the exception of the Salt Lake City region on
July 7 and 8 (as high as 117 ppb).

       Over the period from July 11 to July 14, the ridge strengthened along the Pacific Coast
displacing the jet stream north into Canada. Wind speeds aloft were quite low during this period
along the West Coast resulting in little pollution advection or dispersion. Observed ozone values
greater than 100 ppb were monitored in urban areas all along the Pacific Coast (Redding =110
ppb, Eugene =117 ppb, Portland = 145 ppb, Seattle/Tacoma =118 ppb). Elevated levels of
ozone continued throughout this period in the Sacramento, the San Joaquin Valley, and Los
Angeles airsheds.

       Further east, the highest ambient ozone of the summer in Albuquerque (111 ppb) and El
Paso (112 ppb) were recorded on July 11. Vigorous northwest flow aloft which was associated
with a trough over the central U.S. prevented ozone buildup in Denver (until July 15 when a 107
ppb value was recorded).

       Monsoonal rains kept ambient ozone relatively low  in Arizona cities such as Phoenix and
Tucson. The episode ended (even in Los  Angeles and other California cities) when a strong 500
millibar trough progressed through the region from July 15-17.  This period of reduced ozone
conveniently allowed the modeling for the second July 1996 episode to be initialized with clean
conditions (ozone and ozone precursors).

       July 18-31. 1996

       Like the early July 1996 episode, this scenario began with a developing ridge over the
western U.S. on July 21. Ozone was confined to the major  cities of California until the July 23-
28 period, by which time the anticyclone aloft had strengthened and dominated the Pacific States
and the Desert Southwest. Temperatures  rose into the 100s in Oregon and Washington.  No
precipitation was recorded anywhere west of the Rocky Mountains; cloud cover was limited as
well over this region.

       As a result, ozone levels rose as well in areas such as Portland (149 ppb on 7/26),
Phoenix (127 ppb on 7/23),  Seattle (112 ppb on 7/26) and Salt Lake City (110 ppb on 7/26). The
ridge flattened out somewhat by July 29, but ozone values remained high in California and the
Arizona cities (Phoenix) through the end of the episode.

       2. General Representativeness of Episodic Ozone to Design Values

       Ozone in the western U.S. tends to be much less regionally pervasive than in the eastern
U.S. In general, ozone non-attainment conditions are more local in nature. This makes it more
                                           13

-------
difficult to capture in a few episodes all of the conditions that lead to individual design-value
levels of ozone in western areas. Table ni-1 compares 1996-1998 ambient design values against
the highest observed ozone levels in the Tier 2 episodes for the major non-California
metropolitan areas in the West6.  The results indicate that the peak ozone levels during the
episodes modeled are generally in the range of the design values. For example, only in Portland,
OR is the measured peak not within 15 ppb of the recent design value.

Table III-l. Comparison of 1996-1998 design values for major metropolitan areas in the
western U.S. against the highest observed ozone value in those same areas recorded during the

B.     Domain and Grid Configuration

       The Tier 2 UAM-V modeling for the western U.S. was completed using a domain
containing two nested grids of varying extent and resolution as described below and shown in
Figure IJJ-1. The modeling used a latitude-longitude coordinate system as indicated below.
Main Grid:
Resolution: 1/2° longitude, 1/3° latitude (approximately 36 km)
East-West extent: -127 W to -99 W
North-South extent: 26 N to 52 N
Vertical extent: Surface to 4800 meters
Dimensions: 56 by 78 by 11
       6 Capturing representative ozone levels in California is less important in this analysis
because the equivalent of the Tier 2/Sulfur standards have been adopted there.

-------
C.     Meteorological Modeling

       The gridded meteorological data for the two historical 1996 episodes were developed
using the Fifth-Generation NCAR / Penn State Mesoscale Model (MM5). MM5 (Grell et. al.,
1995) is a numerical meteorological model that solves the full set of physical and thermodynamic
equations which govern atmospheric motions.

       MM5 was run in a nested-grid mode with three levels of resolution: 108 km, 36km, and
12 km with 23 vertical layers.  The model was simulated in five day segments with an eight hour
ramp-up period.  The MM5 runs were started at OZ, which is 4PM PST.  The first eight hours of
each five day period were removed before being input into UAM-V. The UAM-V runs start at
midnight, and each day runs from midnight to midnight (PST).

       MM5 is a terrain-following sigma-pressure coordinate model and was run using a
Lambert conformal map projection, therefore the data were processed to match the UAM-V grid
structure. There was also an issue in that several of the UAM-V grid boundaries extended
slightly beyond their counterpart MM5 12 km and 36 km domain boundaries (mostly over the
Pacific Ocean).  In these cases, data from the next outer grid were mapped to these areas. A
preprocessor (MM52UAMV) generates model-ready UAM-V files for wind, temperature, water
vapor, pressure, and vertical diffusion from the MM5 output. For more information on the
preparation of non-emissions-related inputs, see SAI (1999).

       The standard version of MM5 was revised for this project to output the internally-
calculated vertical diffusivities (Kv) generated as part of the Medium Range Forecast (MRF)
model boundary layer scheme. When the MRF boundary layer option is employed these  Kv
values represent non-local vertical exchanges.  This approach should provide the most
representative mixing field; one that captures both large- and small-scale vertical diffusive
fluxes.

       Unlike the eastern UAM-V modeling, the cloud fraction and rainfall rate inputs were
derived from the meteorological model as opposed to interpolating observed data to the model
grid. This alternative procedure was used because of the relatively sparse meteorological
observation network in the western U.S. Cloud fractions were diagnosed from the MM5 results
based on the assignment of a critical relative humidity, which if exceeded, indicated the presence
of a cloud.  The fractional extent of the cloud was a function of the amount the model humidity
exceeds the threshold value. Rainfall rates are extracted directly from MM5.
D.     Development of Other UAM-V Input Files

       The manmade emissions for the three scenarios were processed through the Sparse
Matrix Operator Kernal Emissions (SMOKE) modeling system (Houyoux and Vukovich, 1999)
for stationary sources and EMS-95 for mobile sources in order to develop the model-ready, day-

                                          16

specific emissions. Biogenic emissions were developed using BEIS-2. The initial, lateral
boundary, and top boundary species concentrations were set to clean values intended to represent
background-like concentrations. All species were set to values prescribed in EPA (1991), except
CO (200 ppb), VOC (25 ppb)8,  ozone (30 ppb), NO (0 ppb), and NO2 (1 ppb). Model land use
characteristics (as percentages of specified 11 categories) were derived from a 200 meter
resolution U.S. Geological Survey data base. Albedo values (needed in the calculation of
photolysis rates) were taken from this same data base. The aerosol optical depth which governs
the amount of UV scattering due to airborne particulates was set to a nominal value (0.094)
indicative of rural conditions. The photolysis rate lookup table required for the UAM-V runs
was developed,  as in the eastern U.S. simulations, via the JCALC preprocessor program.
E.     Model Performance Evaluation
      An operational evaluation was performed for the western modeling using the same
procedures and statistics discussed in section II-E.  Model performance measures were calculated
over the entire modeling domain, the 12 km fine grid, and 10 individual areas (Albuquerque,
Denver, El Paso, Phoenix, Portland, Salt Lake City, the San Joaquin Valley, Seattle, San
Francisco, and Southern California).  Table ni-2 contains the operational evaluation statistics.

of observed ozone as summarized in Table in-3. The model underestimated mean ozone by
about 30 ppb on average. On an individual area basis, the model did somewhat better in the
northwest portion of the domain (Portland and Seattle) where negative biases were about 15-25
percent. In the end, the modeling was determined to be sufficient for the intended purpose, that
is, to be used in a relative sense to assess the impacts of the Tier 2/Sulfur controls as part of the
economic benefits calculations.

IV.  Results of the Tier 2/Gasoline Sulfur Modeling for Ozone

       The results of the Tier-2 modeling were further analyzed to provide information to (a)
support the determination of the need for Tier 2, (b) examine the air quality impacts of the
program, and (c) support the preparation of responses to comments on the proposed rulemaking.
The analyses for each of these purposes are described below.

A.  Analysis of Need

       To support the determination of the need for Tier 2, the modeling results were examined
to identify those CMSA and MSAs that have predicted exceedances of the 1-hour NAAQS in the
2007 and/or in the 2030 baseline scenarios.  Model predicted exceedances are defined as daily 1-
hour maximum concentrations >=125 ppb. A CMSA/MSA is determined to contain an
exceedance if at least one of the model grid cells assigned to the area has at least one exceedance
during the episodes modeled.  The procedures for assigning grid cells to areas are defined below.
The CMS A/MS As with predicted 2007 base case and/or 2030 base case exceedances are listed in
Appendix IV-1.

B.  Impacts of the Tier 2/Sulfur Program on Ozone Levels

       The forecasted impacts on ozone concentrations as a result of the Tier 2 program were
analyzed by comparing model predictions from the 2007 and 2030 Tier 2 control cases to those
in the corresponding 2007 and 2030 base case scenarios.  For 2007, the impacts of Tier 2 are
derived from model simulations for the three episodes in June, July, and August 1995. For 2030,
                                         18

-------
model runs were made for the June and July 1995 episodes only. Thus, the 2030 impacts are
based on predictions from these two episodes.  As indicated above, the first 3 days of each
episode are considered as initialization or "ramp up" days and are, therefore, excluded from the
analysis of results.

       The focus of the analysis is on ozone levels in the eastern U.S. since this region contains
most of the areas with 1-hour nonattainment.  In particular, the impacts were quantified for
CMSA/MSAs with predicted future-year exceedances of the 1-hour ozone NAAQS. As
indicated above, predicted exceedances are modeled 1-hour daily maximum concentrations
>=125 ppb.  The methods for determining which areas have forecasted exceedances are described
below. For the eastern U.S. modeling there were 48 such areas in 2007 while for 2030 there
were 38 areas with base case exceedances9. Note that the 2030 scenario had a different number
of areas for analysis compared to 2007 in part because some areas only had exceedances
predicted in the August episode which was not modeled for 2030 (i.e., Charleston, Cincinnati,
Huntington, Indianapolis, Lakeland, Macon, Melbourne, Norfolk, Orlando, Pensacola, and
Wheeling) and because one area (i.e., York) had predicted exceedances in the 2030 base case but
not the 2007 base case.

       1.  Methods for Quantifying Impacts

       a.  Definition of Areas for Analysis

       In order to analyze the impacts of the Tier 2/Sulfur emissions reductions, it was necessary
to "link" or assign the model's grid cells to individual CMSA/MSAs. The rules for assigning
grid cells to CMSA/MSAs (i.e., areas) is as follows. The first step was to assign grid cells to
States based on the fraction of the grid cells' area in a State. A grid cell was assigned to the  State
which contains most of the cells' area. Next, grid cells were assigned to an individual
CMSA/MSAs if (1) the grid is wholly contained within the CMSA/MSA or (2) partially within
(i.e., overlapping) the area, but not also partially within another CMSA/MSA.  Grid cells that
partially overlap two or more CMSA/MSAs are assigned to the county, and thereby the
corresponding CMSA/MSA, which contains the largest portion of the grid cell. Each grid cell in
the "coarse" or 36 km grid portion of the domain was divided into nine 12 km grids before
applying the preceding methodology.  The number of grid cells assigned to each area is listed in
Appendix IV-2.

       b.  Description of Ozone Metrics

       The impacts of Tier 2 on ozone were quantified using a number of metrics (i.e., measures
of ozone concentrations). These metrics include:
       9 These areas are listed in Appendix IV-1.  Portland, OR is on the list of areas with
predicted future exceedances, but was not included in this analysis which focused only on areas
in the eastern U.S.

                                           19

-------
       (1) the peak 1-hour ozone concentrations,
       (2) the number of exceedances,
       (3) the total amount of ozone >= 125 ppb,
       (4) the decrease in ozone, on average, and
       (5) the increase in ozone, on average.

(1) The peak 1-hour ozone represents the highest ozone prediction within the area (i.e., CMSA or
MSA) across all episodes modeled.

(2) The number of exceedances is the total number of grid cells with predicted exceedances in
the area across all days. This exceedance metric counts each grid cell every day there is a
predicted exceedance in that grid. Thus, an individual grid cell can be counted more than once if
there are multiple days with predicted exceedances in that grid.

(3) The total amount of ozone above 125 ppb in an area is determined by taking the difference
between the predicted daily maximum ozone concentration and 125 ppb (i.e., daily maximum -
125 ppb) in each grid cell and then summing this amount across all grid cells in the area and days
modeled. This metric is referred to as "the amount of nonattainment".

(4) The decrease, on average is determined by first summing all the reductions predicted in those
grid cells with daily maximum ozone >=125 ppb in the base case (i.e., base case exceedances).
This total reduction is then divided by the number of base case exceedances in the area to yield
the "ppb" decrease that occurs, on average, for the exceedances predicted in the area.

(5) The increase, on average is determined by summing any increases in ozone that occur in
values already >= 125 ppb in the base case together with any increases that cause a value below
125 ppb in the base case to go above 125 ppb in the control case.  This total increase is then
divided by the number of exceedances in the base case.

       The impacts of Tier 2 on ozone were examined for the individual CMSA/MSAs as well
as by aggregating the metrics across all areas (i.e., 48 in 2007 and 38 in 2030) to obtain the
overall impact expected from the program. The values of the metrics are provided in Appendix
IV-3 for 2007 and Appendix IV-4 for 2030.

       2. Impacts on Ozone in 2007 and 2030

       a. Impacts in 2007

       The ozone modeling results for 2007 show that Tier 2 will  provide nearly a 10%
reduction in the total number of exceedances predicted across all 48 CMSA/MSAs combined.
Overall, the total amount of nonattainment is predicted to decline by about 15%. Looking at the
results for individual areas, over half (i.e., 31 of the 48) areas have fewer exceedances with Tier 2
in 2007. In five of these  31 areas, the exceedances are eliminated by Tier 2 (i.e., Macon,
                                          20

-------
Melbourne, Norfolk, Pittsburgh, and Rochester). Of the 48 areas, 14 are expected to have no
change in the total number of exceedances.  Only 3 areas (i.e., Chicago, Detroit, and New
London) are predicted to have an increase in exceedances.  In each of these areas the increase
occurs in only one grid cell on one day, which is a small impact considering the total number of
grid cells in these area.

       In the vast majority of areas (i.e., 45 out of 48), the decrease in ozone, on average is
greater than any predicted increase, on average. In fact, only two areas (i.e., Chicago and Detroit)
are predicted to have an increase, on average of more than  a half ppb (6 other areas had an
increase, on average of between one tenth and a half ppb).  However, even these two areas are
predicted to have a reduction in the peak ozone concentration.

       b. Impacts in 2030

       In the 2030 base case the number of exceedances increases relative to the amount of 125
ppb or greater cells in the 2007 base case in most areas, when looking at a consistent set of
episode days. This reflects the increase in emissions as growth outpaces the effects of controls.
Meanwhile, the overall number of exceedances is reduced  32% due to the Tier 2/Sulfur controls
in 2030 while the amount of nonattainment is predicted to  decline by 36%. Of the 38 areas,
nearly all (i.e., 32) are predicted to have a decrease in the number of exceedances while the
remaining six areas are predicted to have no change.  None of the areas are predicted to have an
increase in exceedances. However, in two of the 38 areas (i.e., Chicago and Detroit) the amount
of ozone nonattainment is predicted to be larger in the control case than in the 2030 base case.
C.  Additional Analyses to Support Responses to Comments

       Several additional analyses were performed to support the responses to comments on the
proposed rule. These analyses include (a) an evaluation of the Tier 2 regional model
performance analogous to EPA's urban ("local") scale model performance recommendations
(EPA, 1991), (b) a determination of "alternative attainment targets" for individual areas
considering the episodes modeled, and (c) an estimation of attainment/nonattainment based on
relative reduction factors.

       1.  "Local" Scale Model Performance

       Several comments were received on the Tier 2 notice of proposed rulemaking to the
effect that model over predictions could be leading to overestimates of residual non-attainment
areas. To support the response to this comment, a local-scale evaluation was conducted on the
final modeling to ensure that the determination of Tier 2/Sulfur need was not significantly biased
                                          21

due to model performance.  Statistics were calculated for 36 "local" subregions10 using the
procedures described in Section II.  Generally speaking, model performance will typically appear
poorer for individual local subregions than when the performance statistics are averaged over
larger regions. This results due to the heightened sensitivity of local-scale model results to local
input uncertainties.  Table IV-1 contains the area-wide unpaired peak prediction accuracy, the
average peak prediction accuracy, mean normalized bias and mean normalized gross error values
for the 36 local-scale subdomains averaged over the 30 episode days.  Some conclusions
regarding model performance at the local scale are listed below.

              The model is, on average, biased toward underestimations of observed ozone,
              especially in the Midwest and Northeast.

              The few regions which exhibit overestimated base year ozone are in the southern
              portion of the domain.  Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Birmingham, and Houston all
              have positive biases of at least 5 percent.

              Model performance is generally poorest in the Lake Michigan area probably due
              to the preponderance of shoreline monitors (where the highest ozone levels are
              often confined to within 1-3 km inland from the cool lake, that is, below the
              resolution of this analysis).  Gross errors in this region approach 30 percent.
       2.  Determination of Alternative Attainment Targets

       As indicated above, one of the primary purposes of the Tier 2 modeling was to determine
the number of areas projected to experience exceedances of the 1-hour standard in 2007.  These
areas were identified based on whether the highest daily maximum 1-hour value in the 2007 base
case was >=125 ppb. This "exceedance method" was criticized during the comment period as
potentially exaggerating the extent of the future year problem.  One commenter recommended
that EPA follow its own guidance (EPA, 1996) regarding attainment demonstrations for ozone
episode days associated with infrequent, severe meteorological conditions by allowing for
alternative attainment targets (i.e., values above 124 ppb). These alternative targets are allowed
for use in local attainment demonstrations to determine whether model-predicted peak ozone
values > 124 ppb can be considered as showing attainment in view of the statistical form of the
1-hour NAAQS in the case of especially severe meteorological conditions.

       To respond to this and similar comments we performed an analysis to identify the
alternative attainment targets appropriate for the episodes modeled.  This analysis was performed
for those 18 areas for which the meteorological severity has been calculated and ranked.
Alternative targets were not be calculated for the other areas.  The projected exceedance areas for
which this analysis was performed are: Atlanta, Baltimore, Baton Rouge, Birmingham, Chicago,
Greater Connecticut, Cleveland, Detroit, Houston, Huntington, Louisville, Milwaukee,
Muskegon, New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Providence, and St. Louis.

       Table IV-2 shows the alternative targets for those days/areas thought to be representative
of unusually severe meteorology. Some episode days are not shown because there are no
alternative targets for those days (i.e., the target remains 124 ppb for all areas). Each residual

nonattainment area (for which data was available to complete the alternate target analysis) had at
least one day in which the 2007 baseline maxima exceeded the attainment target, 124 ppb or
otherwise.

       3.  Estimation of Attainment/Nonattainment Using Relative Reduction Factors

       EPA received comments that recommended using relative reduction factors applied to
ambient design values as an approach to estimate future nonattainment. Specifically, the
commenters recommended that EPA follow draft guidance for demonstrating attainment of the 8-
hour NAAQS for such an analysis (EPA, 1999). In response, we calculated relative reduction
factors for the 2007 base case and control scenarios using the general methodology in this
guidance.  The exceptions to guidance are that: (a) relative reduction factors (RRF) were
calculated for the highest design value in a county rather than for all monitoring sites in a county
and (b) we used a cut-off of 80 ppb as  appropriate for considering 1-hour model predictions as
opposed to 70 ppb recommended in the guidance for 8-hour concentrations (see Appendix IV-5
for the rationale for selecting 80 ppb).  The county-specific relative reduction factors (2007-B
RRF, 2007-C RRF) were applied to both 1995-1997 and 1996-1998 design values for estimating
2007 base and 2007 control values (2007-B New DV, 2007-C New DV). The ambient design
values, adjustment factors based on modeling, and the resulting 2007 values are provided in
                                          24

Appendix IV-5: Limiting Modeled One-Hour Daily Maxima used in
Calculation of Relative Reduction Factors

       As part of the identification of the need for the proposed Tier 2 standards, EPA is
planning to use a rollback approach to link future-year model ozone changes to present-day
ozone design values, thereby allowing an assessment of an area's future year nonattainment
status.  The specific equation used in the analysis is:

       DVF; = RRF; * DVQ

where  DVF; = the future design value predicted for site i,
       RRF; = the relative reduction factor calculated near site i, and
       DVC; = the current design value monitored at site i.

       One of the more important details in an accurate calculation of episode-average RRF; is to
ensure that the calculated factor represents ozone improvements on high ozone days. If ozone
predicted near a monitor on a particular day is very much less than the design value, the model
predictions for that day could be unresponsive to controls (e.g., location  could be upwind of
controls for a given meteorological situation). EPA draft guidance on eight-hour attainment
demonstrations recommended limiting RRF calculations to those instances where the daily
maximum eight-hour model concentration in a nearby grid cell exceeded 70 ppb. This threshold
was set based on 90 days of modeling data (at 158 sites) investigating the relationship between
the RRF and the base magnitude.

       The Tier 2 modeling analyses will attempt to project future-year one-hour design values,
therefore a separate rollback threshold will be needed. Two simple approaches were used to
derive an appropriate cutoff. The first approach is based on the assumption that peak eight-hour
ozone concentrations are generally  85 percent of their one-hour counterparts. Using this
methodology, the 70 ppb threshold identified as part of the 8-hour analysis discussed above
would translate to a 80-85 ppb  value (82.4).

       The second approach looked at the relationship between one-hour model response (from a
preliminary Tier 2 strategy run) and base model one-hour ozone at every grid cell of the  domain
over the July 8th - July  15th episode.  As  an example, Figure 1 shows a scatterplot of the two
fields for July 14th for an across-the-board NOx simulation.  There  is a clear relationship between
RRF and base ozone up to about 70-85 ppb. The largest reductions (RRFs of approximately 0.8)
appear to occur in conjunction  with base ozone values greater than about 80 ppb. Figure 2 shows
the same style plot for  a VOC control run. Again, the relationship between base ozone and
ozone response appears to hold only to about 70-85 ppb.
